A Sunny Day

It's sunny outside, but I have a lot of work to get done. So I wrote a poem about it.

Sun, sun, please go away, 
When it’s sunny, I want to play, 
But I have lots of work today, 
So please come back another day. 

When my work is finally done, 
You and me will have fun, sun. 
Until that day, what will be fun, 
Is getting all of my work done.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving is a time,

When we like to dine,

With family, friends, and pets.

We stay in touch,

And may eat too much,

That is, if others will let.

Sit and watch TV,

Visit with the family,

Or just relax a while.

Appreciate the day,

Work can wait, anyway,

And enjoy life with a smile.

A Relaxing Afternoon

My tummy is full of deliciousness,

I had a yummy lunch.

I ate some tasty sandwiches,

And some grapes, a bunch.

Now that I am happily full,

And it’s a sunny day,

I think I will take a nap,

And just relax today.

I’ll Stay Home

Inter-dimensional travel

Is not the thing for me,

If I want to travel,

This planet is fine for me.

I don’t have the knowledge or money,

To make such a bizarre trip,

Such travel seems very funny,

And not really worth it.

So I’ll stay with what I know,

And watch a local band,

Let others see the alien show,

I hope they find it grand.

And if they tell me it’s great,

I still won’t envy them,

I just think I would hate,

Traveling to such ends.

The World is a Complicated Place

A poem I wrote.

The world is a complicated place,
He said without a trace,
Of irony on his face.
The world is a complicated place. 

We think we understand a lot,
Because we give it lots of thought,
But know everything we will not,
The world is a complicated place. 

But that’s okay he said,
To know everything I would dread,
I couldn’t keep it straight in my head,
The world is a complicated place.
